I had a lot fun incorporating the WOW! embossing powders on my cards. First up, I’ve used the Moose Love stamp set from Gerda Steiner Designs and 4 different embossing powders. I die-cut a circle from a piece of white cardstock and inked up an embossing folder with Versamark ink. I dry embossed the panel and then sprinkled Oyster Glintz all over the panel and heat embossed. I love that extra shine and hint of gold!
I die-cut some pine boughs from white and green cardstock and heat embossed them with Mint Macaroon. I inked a piece of white cardstock with Iced Spruce distress ink and die-cut a ring shape to frame my little scene. I’ve also heat embossed it with Mint Macaroon. I love the different looks you can get from the transparent powders.
For a nice pop of red, I die-cut the merry sentiment from kraft cardstock and heat embossed with Primary Apple Red Super Fine. It gave it a nice deep brick red color. I’ve also added a little Primary Apple Red embossing to the stamped hearts and mistletoe. I heat embossed the “kiss-moose”sentiment from the Moose Love stamp set using Opaque Bright White Super Fine.
On my second card, I’ve used another Gerda Steiner Designs favorite of mine, the Valentine Penguins stamp set, and the same powders as above except I’ve replaced the Oyster Glintz with White Puff powder.
I cut a piece of kraft cardstock for the background panel, stamped a sweater pattern and heat embossed first the top half of the panel with Primary Apple Red Super Fine and then the bottom portion with Opaque Bright White Super Fine.
I die-cut the snowflakes from white cardstock and heat embossed them with White Puff Powder. It’s becoming one of my favorite powders as we head into winter. Perfect for snowy scenes!
I heat embossed the “happy” sentiment from the Easter Bunnies stamp set from Gerda Steiner Designs in Opaque Bright White Super Fine.
For a fun bit of color, I inked a piece of white cardstock with Cracked Pistachio and Evergreen Bough distress inks, die-cut the winter sentiment and heat embossed it with Mint Macaroon.
Hope you enjoy the hop today and don’t forget to comment on all of the blog posts to be eligible to win!!
Thanks so much for stopping by!

Very cute. Love the background embossing
WOW! It looks like your mooseing around! haha Nice job on using several different cools to emboss!
The moose stamp is on my wish list for sure, that is adorable. I had no idea WOW had all those colors of embossing powders and glitters. This just blows me away. You used so many different ones and a lot on one card. Something else I’ve never thought to do. Embossing powder is magic and now I want them all!
Love these stamps. Great job on the cards.
Both cards are fabulous, But I adore MOOSE. I have this set so need to try some cards with it this Christmas.

The expression on that moose is so stinkin’ cute! My family is obsessed with penguins so the 2nd card is a must for me to make.
These stamp sets are adorable! I like the way you used the different colors and techniques to demonstrate the versatility of the Wow Embossing Powder! Inking up an embossing folder to emboss the paper and then apply the powder is a great way to get the extra shine! You’re right, the transparency of the powders is wonderful too!
I need to get these mooses (meeses?).. You made two spectacular cards!
Nice reds, greens, and white. Adorable stamps and cards xoxo
